Thanks for info Steve. Never got to work on an 8B yet, although I have seen examples of most other classic amps up to this point. A guy is probably sending me a pair of them to refurbish this spring so I will get my chance. I will tread lightly, but he is keeping them so I get to re-cap them as well as rebuild the power supply. There is no way an original one could sound as good as a rebuilt one. Of course, we all know that...... I know that Art Dudley is no idiot. He knows too. Just the politics of articles in stereo mags and advertisers....
